Background

Yogan Yalu was born Yogan Verso in Sarajevo in 2362. His father Aydam was an agriculture scientist and his mother Haned was an administrator in the Trill Diplomatic Corps, working within the diplomatic mission on Earth. He has two younger siblings, Nedal and Kejana, also born on Earth. His childhood was mostly happy and without major incident, but being the only Trill child in a community of mostly humans gave him a sense of self-exceptionalism that would take years to grow out of.

After the Antwerp Conference bombing and the attempted coup d’état on Earth in 2372, Haned and Aydam brought their young family back to the relative tranquility of the Trill homeworld. They resettled in a provincial town on the foothills of Bes Manev, and 10-year-old Yogan found it difficult to adjust from the excitement of living in a major urban center on an alien planet. It was, however, his first real opportunity to learn about the customs and history of his own people, particularly the practice of joining, which was not discussed openly during the family’s years on Earth.

After completing his secondary education in 2381, Yogan enrolled at the University of Chi’tar, completing premedical studies with a minor in linguistics in 2386. While he intended to continue on to medical school, his plans were put on hold when he was accepted into the Initiate Program, and became a candidate for joining. After a difficult four years as an initiate, the Symbiosis Commission approved Yogan for joining. While waiting for a symbiont, he accepted a one-year fellowship in critical care and emergency medicine, about which he became deeply passionate.

Finally, in 2392, Yogan was joined with a 362-year-old symbiont called Yalu. He spent much of that year adjusting to life as a joined Trill, but in early 2393, he applied to Starfleet Medical Academy to complete his studies. Moving back to Earth after 20 years wasn’t exactly the homecoming he might have hoped for, but he excelled in medical school and graduated in 2397.
